Gentamicin's spectrum of activity includes coverage against many aerobic gram-negative and some aerobic gram-positive bacteria, including most species of E. coli, Klebsiella, Proteus, Pseudomonas, Salmonella, Enterobacter, Serratia, and Shigella, Mycoplasma, and Staphylococcus. Gentamicin Sulfate Solution is commonly used as an injectable equine antibiotic for the control of bacterial infections of the uterus (metritis) in horses and as an aid in improving conception in mares with uterine infections caused by bacteria sensitive to gentamicin in horses.
Gentamicin has a mechanism of action and spectrum of activity (primarily gram-negative aerobes) similar to the other aminoglycosides. Like the other aminoglycoside antibiotics, it acts on susceptible bacteria presumably by irreversibly binding to the 30S ribosomal subunit thereby inhibiting protein synthesis. It is considered a bactericidal concentration-dependent antibiotic.
Supplied as 100mg/ml in either a 100 ml or 250 ml bottle.
Needles and syringes sold separately.
A veterinarian's prescription is required for purchase.
